AAAAAAAAHHHHHH.... Really really enjoyed these 2 days!!! It's like a much needed retreat for me! Spent new year's eve at my grandma's place for reunion and watched a movie with dad n bro! FEARLESS! very nice!!!!!!!! Though it's a wushu movie but the storyline is actually more than that la.. it speaks of sportsmanship.. And at some points it was actually quite touching till i teared.. heee~~ And there were some quite gross scenes eek. But on the whole, it was a show worth your 9.50.. And after the show we went over to Holland V! My dad and bro went to Eskibar and I joined a few choir members at TCC!! Happiness! Wahaha.. Very fun~~ Thanks people~ We stayed till 3 plus? WAhah~














A game of 'heart attack' ended up with Jon having 7 cards?! LOL real power.

Oh ya, today is CNY.. XING NIAN KUAI LE! So funny u know, I greeted my neighbour ytd "Auntie, xing nian kuai le" Know what she replied? "Ni yei kuai le" WAHA.. Joker.. Anyway, this morning it was so hard to wake up!!! But have to ma.. Went to my paternal grandma's house first.. There were 2 other families, so I received 3 angbaos~ WAhah.. We ate the traditional dish my ah ma always cooks on cny.. But the families were always gossiping la. BORING.. So I sat at the corner whistling. This is not what cny is all about I think. A time to gather and bring other people down? To make yourself appear higher? But of cos, I remained nonchalant.. again.. So that's not the fun side..

Next I went to my maternal ah ma jia!!! This is more re nao and happening la!! The only hard thing was, like I mentioned, opening the door and walking in! I literally took a deep breath and plucked up my courage to do so.. The sight of so many pairs of shoes outside was kinda intimidating la. So, as expected, when i stepped in, all were curious to see who ma.. so all turned and looked! OH NOoo.. shyness. I don't like this type of attention la wahah.. they commented blablabla.. aiyooo so i sort of "went into hiding" wahaha.. anyway, I had a good time catching up with them! My ah ma and ah gong so loving.. So much so that.. when they first spoke to me just now I teared secretly.. It was just normal conversation but their love was overwhelming la. Silly me.. If I didn't remember wrongly, they only asked me to go eat.. but that alone was filled with love la. Later at night, me my cousin and ah ma were flipping through some old photos and we saw my grandparents' wedding photo! My ah ma told me she was very pretty when she was young! Wahah.















See! Nice features !! Her skin condition is still good for her age! haha

Cousinsss~

Potential model.. wahaha..

Potential charmer..

Oh today we had a half day~ I went to school!!! Haha! something to be quite surprised about.. anyway, we watched some performances and ya that was it.. One thing I felt very strongly about is the irony that the Malays were more excited about this entire thing than the Chinese!! Is cny becoming just another passe 'event'? I hope not! Well, for me I no longer look forward to cny as much as I did say 10 years ago? But of course the angbao enthusiasm is still high la. HAHA.. Anyway that's not the point.. hahaha.. Maybe it's having to meet my relatives? They are nice people but I feel quite awkward actually waha.. and they always tell me the same things.. wahaha! The only thing I don't like is having to open the front door and walk in.. cos that's when all will stare at you and comment.. wahaha!!! but anyway, this yr, I'm gonna try to shake off that blase attitude and brush up on my mandarin.. hahaha..
















Xing nian kuai le! Wan shi ru yi! Shen ti jian kang!


































That's our modern dance performance.. It was SO sexy, I thought it was provocative.. But it was nice nice nice~















A sea of red.. that's our choir.. oh they sang dong dong dong chiang as well!! LOL! Minus the HEY though hahaha!














Outside our civics classroom Haha.. after a few failed attempts to take this pic ourselves due to lack of shooting skills.. wahah..

wahaha.. ytd's service was super funny~~~ Esp the choir!!! WAha.. I couldn't help but kept laughing on stage when we sang 'dong dong dong chiang HEY dong dong dong chiang HEY' LOL!!! So funny la the guys.. then the 'gong xi gong xi gong xi ni ya' part we had to do that action ma.. So funny also!!! Cos we gong xi so many times! Aiyo! lol~ went back with yuxuan after that so funny also la...... We ate the gam in the train! lol! Then he walked me home.. HAHA the last time any guy walked me home was 25-12-04 LOL!

oh today is another funny day la.. Though it started quite sianly.. chemistry....... then maths test... but yu su she saved my day la LOL! Did the silly acts made me laugh so hard.. HAHA! If ever, there's an audition for 'The Emperor's New Clothe', she should go la. HAHA..

But it's quite a melancholy day as well.. when I heard people talked behind my friend's back. (telling me, in fact) Ya he acts a little different.. Talks a little different.. People label him a gay? metrosexual? sissy? I don't really care. He's my friend. It just reflects the type of person you are.. So I prefer to remain nonchalant.. again. Maybe I should explain to them? Then I thought again, it wouldn't be much use anyway. Maybe it's just their loss, for not digging deeper under his skin to unravel the beauty inside..

Oh guess what? We ran 3.2k again!!! Can't believe they will treat us like that wahah.. but the feeling was shiokness. I feel running is more of a psychological battle rather than a physical one.. If you're able to conquer your I-can't-run-that-far mindset then you will be able to surprise yourself by running even faster than you thought you could..

Anyway, hmm.. Have to apologize to those people who are disturbed by me recently.. I think I'm a little impatient nowadays... There are days when I don't feel like wasting any time doing unnecessary things 'cos the thought of not accomplishing the important things yet makes me wanna rush home.. Hope you'll understand.. I will look into this..

My nonchalance has once again saved me.
I'm not those who care about the trivial issues in life..
I stand firm in what I believe in..
Won't sway..

Oh anyway!!! It's finally friday!!!! I did something that surprised myself this morning.. We ran 3.2km non-stop!!! Yeah man release the potential in you! Erm.. In this case, let's just say it's the potential energy stored in the fats.. Oh and after school I actually met lao lee for consultation!! He's actually very patient! Good for me! Taught me for about 1 hr.. At a moment he was quite cute la! Feeling sleepy in the mid-afternoon and the way he talked.. was like in lala land la~ LOL!! Then he excused himself to wash his face.. HAHA.. maybe the questions I asked were no kick for him?

After a day of school, I went to... meet BIRD and PINK!!! Yeah man~ coOl~ They never fail to brighten up my days no matter how dull they are.. Pink brokethrough today!! Congrats!! =)! HAHA.. So proud of you~ lol!! We went shopping from bugis to orchard.. And I ended up not buying anything (as usual~) hahaha.. Nvm la, it's the company that matters right haha.. maybe we should make friday a ladies' night for us? HAha.. Cool~ But time always seems to pass so fast!!! =(














That condemned mee goreng.. X

That aside.. my dad n bro came and fetched me to chinatown~ nothing happening~ Same old stuff.. smaller crowd though.. and the same long queue at Mei Zhen Xiang? Ever wonder why people rush to buy the bak gua there only during cny period when it sells it whole year round.. hmmmmm... Oh ya~ My mum bought back loads of goodies.. Ok Aileen, I believe you're strong enough to resist shifting them into your room..

Great day! =) I'm already telling bird that the weekends are going to be over soon.. Aww..

School's such a toil~
Believe it or not, I'm still experiencing some post-holiday syndromes..
The sun was up today, so I walked home..
Miss the beach..
My sentosa membership card is such a waste for me.. ha. =(
Monday was Jon's bday~ I missed out so much!!! =(
Wish I was there..
Today's Sis JinLian's bday~ Yet to wish her.. hee~
It's raining again..
Mixed up weather.
Off I go..
Zzz..

Oh btw, one of the rules I set for myself this year is, to shut my mouth if nothing nice comes out of it... So... keep a 'hear' out for me.. wahaha..

wah yesterday was one long long day........ Choir was fun but i thot the spotlights were a bit too bright.. made me sleepy~ wahah..















N256~~ LOok at the big big card! Celebrated Sis Jl's bday from expo to changi airport wahaha..




















Me and cai loOking at the stationary planes.... Already planning of where to go for my post A-lvl celebration..........

What a day! Firstly bs at bro ed's house.. baby nicole kept crying!!! Hungry baby.. then chionged down on a cab for choir.. we sang parts today! And the mic was real loud.. I mean louder than usual and we could actually hear us.. the start of praise was like an explosion of energy.. WAH. shiokness. Met pink and bird after that for dinner!! =) Happiness. Bird was as usual busy with calls and smses.. and made me n pink seemed so free wahahha.. (btw i'm still thirsty even now~)
Ya that was my day~

Ok and someone commented that my blogskin is too cute for me.. Maybe i should try not to add too many pictures next time?? WAHAHA.. (just kidding.)
Good night.

Anyway, don't feel like talking about it.. nothing much to say actually.
Yesterday! Was Da Ren's 20th bday! Celebrated at swensen's~ Finally can go out play wahaha..



















This is thus far the nicest picture of him. Love it!














Tsunami came..














And swept it all away~














The girlsss~ =) !














Favourite picture!!! Rare moment captured~ Wahaha.. Love it!
















Del!!! Oh btw, she's exactly 2 years younger than me! so cool la..

that's Birdy! U know what? We've known each other since Primary 5!!! Can't believe it.. 8 years! Amazing.. Wanna know my bad evil down sides, ask her.. See if she dares to tell you.. Muahah.. No la not much to say anyway LOL~~ Or ask her my many bad habits that drive her nuts. LOL~ Qing ku ni le birdy~ Trials and tribulation..

Hi dear friends, I really need you to be my cheerleaders in my final lap of jc...
I can't do it all alone...
2 is always better than 1 ya...
Sorry I have to turn some of you down sometimes when you ask me out...
But deep inside I really wish I don't have to do that...
Hope you'll understand..

Sometimes you know.. nerds can really scare me.. I am serious! After 5 days of being in their shoes, I realise it's really not easy and they are really amazing! Often I wonder how they can actually do that for so long~ Or rather for their whole live. When I look at them, I wonder what are they actually thinking. OH NOoooooooo........ Ok my imagination is running wild now.. But seriously I think all of us should try being in their shoes someday.. Wahaha.. then we will not laugh at them anymore.. Forgive me..

Man.. Guess what? I slept after 4:30 this morning! The case is still in investigation and I've blacklisted some of the suspects.. it was either 1) the green tea I drank before bed or 2) my 2 hours afternoon nap 3) the chemistry qns I did before bed 4) the happy memories that filled my mind 5) the excitement of things I'm looking forward to 6) it's friday finally 7) the combination of all.

Ironically, I was rather high today! "JJ will win the war JJ will win the war" HAHA.. My apologies to those whom I irritated. First thing in the morning, I 'boomed' Vickster from behind then I dragged yusu to run a round and then we played tennis. 2 months since I last played! Watched the 1st 3 mths students played at the new synthetic field.. throwing water bombs.. like a mini warfare. But nothing beats our flour and mud. And the rest of the day was mundane.

I don't quite sure know what happened to me recently. I think I have been mutated due to some environmental changes. voila! A neo-Aileen emerges! So ya recently have been very occupied trying to come out with some neo-Aileenism hypotheses. Like.. Survival of the nerdiest?

Haha please pardon me.

Since the first day of school, life has never been the same for me. I am so motivated by the teachers to do well. We have a new math teacher. He likes to speak chinese when teaching math and I think he should just stay that way because I couldn't quite understand his english. He is also a dynamic teacher who likes to make us laugh. He made a remarkable statement that day.. "Don't try to be a hero, heros always die first." waha (He meant don't do last minute work) I promised myself to do his work to the best I can. I want to make him proud. Today, the chemistry lecturer told us there is no Plan B in jc.. It's either you do well and go Uni or you die. With all these being said.. what else can I do sia. Oh but I also realised they are quite pessimistic.. Always talking about dying wahaha..















Shhh... HAHAHA..















OH that CUTIE yu su.. This picture was took after much practising at home wahahaha.. kidding.
She's CUTE by nature.. look at her dimples.. ya she likes to gek them out WAHAHA.. kidding.

Spent New year eve and new year day in church! What a great end and start~ God's presence was so tangible during worship, I couldn't contain my tears even on stage so don't care la let it flow.. As the song was sang, memories of the challenges I went through in 2005 flooded my mind and praise the Lord, He was never far from me in every circumstances and has brought me through it all. Pst Kong's message was awesome as well. I was filled with hope once again for the new year. Hopefully it will last me through the year.. Can't wait to get over and done with my jc daysss... Ok ya I've said that countless times. But still.. ya..~




















Happy New Year!!! *grIn*














N256 at the airport after service~ As if saying farewell to my holidays~ Wahahaha
















That's serene~ Wah nice background.














Sis JinLian and xiao mao mi~
